Our staff consists of full- and part-time officers, clerks and crossing guards, all dedicated to serving the community and meeting the ever-increasing demands for police response.

The Department offers a host of professional services such as the DARE Program, Operation Identification, Home and Business Security Surveys, Project Kidcare Photo ID's, Officer Phil Presentations, Crime Prevention and Juvenile safety seminars, as well as engraving kits, educational videos and personal protection literature.

Jenkintown, Abington and Upper Moreland Police Departments are participating agencies in the SPIRIT ride along program. Recently celebrating it's five year anniversary, SPIRIT consists of trained volunteer professionals who provide rapid on-scene response.

This organization has helped countless victims in the region to develop dependable resources for post-crisis living and to re-gain momentum in their everyday affairs.

The essence of Community policing is fundamental to our law enforcement approach and we are dedicated to the highest standards of professionalism.
